Greg Abbott
Call Me Professor X
… Not Just ‘Governor Hot Wheels’
Published
Texas Governor Greg Abbott is embracing the recent “Governor Hot Wheels” controversy by sharing a meme from Antonio Brown that humorously portrays him as Professor X.
Abbott took to Elon Musk’s app to repost a meme from former NFL player Antonio Brown, drawing a comparison between himself and the X-Men character, both of whom use wheelchairs.

Abbott humorously commented, “Gotta add this to my resume. Need the outfit. They see me rollin’.”
Antonio Brown captioned his original post, “Cracker of the Day #CTESPN Professor X aka @GregAbbott_TX Legend!!”
Abbott and Brown are playfully responding to Rep. Jasmine Crockett‘s earlier remarks about Abbott, where she referred to him as “Governor Hot Wheels.”
Crockett’s comment sparked controversy due to Abbott’s disability, but she clarified that she was referring to his actions regarding migrants and not his physical condition.
